Hot Sausage, Egg & Fontina Breakfast Sandwich

Ingredients

  • 1 white or yellow onion
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • A drizzle of balsamic glaze
  • Brioche bun
  • 1 hot Italian sausage
  • 2 eggs
  • Tbsp of butter
  • A few slices of fontina cheese
  • Arugula
  • Sriracha
  • Mayo I did kewpie bc its my favorite

Instructions 

  • Using a mandolin if you have one, thinly slice onions and add to a large pan with olive oil, salt and pepper. Cook stirring often until the onions are browned and reduced in size, about 20-25 min. I like to add a drizzle of balsamic for added flavor and color.
  • Remove casing from sausage and add to a pan. Break down with a wooden spoon and cook for about 5-8 min until browned and cooked through. Remove from pan and wipe out pan with paper towels.
  • Melt butter in pan and whisk eggs in a small bowl. Pour eggs in pan in an even layer. Add sausage to the middle with a few slices of fontina and a scoop of caramelized onions. Once the egg has started to cook, fold egg over on each side. Cook for another min or so and then remove.
  • Toast brioche and add sriracha mayo or whatever sauce you want. Add eggs, more caramelized onions and a small handful of arugula. That’s it! Enjoy!
